Bugatti Chiron vs Koenigsegg Jesko: Which is Faster?
The Bugatti Chiron and the Koenigsegg Jesko are two of the fastest cars in the world, and they are constantly battling for the top spot. Both cars are incredibly powerful, with top speeds that are only limited by their electronic governors. But which car is actually faster?
Performance Specs:
-
Bugatti Chiron:
- Engine: 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged W16
- Horsepower: 1,479 hp
- Torque: 1,180 lb-ft
